480 for sale with cruise

Cleaned up the garage, found parts laying around, but it turned out to be a complete Volvo 480? If you want to sell your car (480 only) you can place an advert here.

Most unusual eh. Doubt it'll help the sale and I'm not sure I'd trust cruise control on a 480, or any 20 year old car?

Just got in at 5 am this morning from down south with a tired but big grin on my face.At least I didnt have to come up the M6 (what a boring drag of a road ) :D

Car performed faultlessly. Best pleased - just as well as its my daily driver from now on :rofl:

Will be putting up for sale my paris blue 1.7 480 very soon when I get a new MOT on him. :D

Why are you removing the cruise control? And show us some pics of kermit/muppet.
